BACKGROUND

This invention relates to novel N-(heterocyclicaminocarbonyl)arylsulfonamides in which at least one of the acyclic nitrogens thereof is substituted by lower alkyl, or in some cases by methoxy. The compounds of this invention and their agriculturally suitable salts, are useful as agricultural chemicals, such as plant growth regulants and herbicides.

Netherlands Pat. No. 121,788, published Sept. 15, 1966, discloses the preparation of compounds of the following Formula and their use as general or selective herbicides, ##STR1## wherein R₁ and R₂ may independently be alkyl of 1-4 carbon atoms; and

R₃ and R₄ may independently be hydrogen, chlorine or alkyl of 1-4 carbon atoms.

U.S. Pat. No. 3,637,366 discloses compounds having the formula: ##STR2## wherein R₁ is hydrogen or lower saturated aliphatic acyl and

R₂ is hydrogen, 2-pyrimidinyl, pyridyl, amidino, acetyl or carbamoyl.

The disclosed compounds are said to provide control of crabgrass, cress, endive, clover and Poa annua.

French Pat. No. 1,468,747 discloses the following para-substituted phenylsulfonamides as being useful as antidiabetic agents: ##STR3## wherein R=H, halogen, CF₃ or alkyl.

Compounds of the following formula, and their use as antidiabetic agents, are reported in J. Drug Res. 6, 123 (1974) ##STR4## wherein R is pyridyl.

Logemann et al. Chem. Ab., 53, 18052 g (1959), disclose a number of sulfonamides, including uracil derivatives and those having the formula: ##STR5## wherein R is butyl, phenyl or ##STR6## and R₁ is hydrogen or methyl.

When tested for hypoglycemic effect in rats (oral doses of 25 mg/100 g), the compounds in which R is butyl and phenyl were most potent. The others were of low potency or inactive.

Wojciechowski, J. Acta. Polon. Pharm. 19, p. 121-5 (1962) [Chem. Ab., 59 1633 e] describes the synthesis of N-[(2,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-4yl)aminocarbonyl]-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide: ##STR7## Based upon similarity to a known compound, the author predicted hypoglycemic activity for the foregoing compound.

Substituted-pyrimidinyl sulfonylureas of the following formula, which are also para-substituted on the phenyl ring, are disclosed in Farmco Ed. Sci., 12, 586 (1957) [Chem. Ab., 53, 18052 g (1959)]: ##STR8## wherein R=H or CH₃.

The presence of undesired vegetation causes substantial damage to useful crops, especially agricultural products that satisfy man's basic food and fiber needs, such as cotton, rice, corn, wheat, and the like. The current population explosion and concomitant world food and fiber shortage demand improvements in the efficiency of producing these crops. Preventing or minimizing loss of a portion of such valuable crops by killing, or inhibiting the growth of undesired vegetation is one way of improving this efficiency.

A wide variety of materials useful for killing or inhibiting (controlling) the growth of undesired vegetation is available; such materials are commonly referred to as herbicides. However, the need still exists for effective herbicides that destroy or control weeds while not significantly damaging useful crops. Some weeds (nutsedge is a particular example) are very difficult to control; many of the herbicides that are used to control nutsedge are so nonselective that they cause damage to the crops themselves.

Synthesis

As shown in Equation 1, the compounds of Formula I, wherein R₂ is H, can be prepared by reacting an appropriately substituted sulfonyl isocyanate of Formula II with an appropriate 2-alkylaminopyrimidine or 2-alkylamino-1,3,5-triazine of Formula III, R₁, R₃, X, Y and Z being as previously defined. ##STR14##

The reaction is best carried out in inert aprotic organic solvents such as methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran or acetonitrile, at ambient pressure and temperature. The mode of addition is not critical; however, it is often convenient to add the sulfonyl isocyanate to a stirred suspension of amine III. Since such isocyanates usually are liquids, their addition can be easily controlled.

The reaction is generally exothermic. In some cases, the desired product is insoluble in the warm reaction medium and crystallizes from it in pure form. Products soluble in the reaction medium are isolated by evaporation of the solvent, trituration of the solid residue with solvents such as 1-chlorobutane or ethyl ether, and filtration.

Compounds of Formula I, wherein R₂ is alkyl, can be prepared by alkylation of the salts of compounds of Formula I, wherein R₂ is H, as shown in Equation 2; R₁, R₂, R₃, X, Y and Z being as previously defined and M is a metal cation and Q an anion, such as halide or sulfate. ##STR15##

The reaction is best carried out in aprotic organic solvents such as tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, or dimethylacetamide, at ambient pressure and temperature. Alkylating agents such as dimethyl sulfate, methyl iodide, and ethyl iodide can be employed. The desired product can be isolated by pouring the reaction mixture into water and filtering off the precipitated solid.

Alternatively, compounds of Formula I, wherein R₂ is alkyl, can be prepared by the reaction of an appropriately substituted sulfonyl-N-alkylcarbamyl chloride of Formula IV with an appropriate 2-aminopyrimidine or 2-amino-1,3,5-triazine of Formula III; as shown in Equation 3; R₁, R₂, R₃, A, X and Z are as previously defined. ##STR16##

The preparation of ureas from amines and carbamyl chlorides is well known to the art. The reaction can best be carried out by adding equivalent amounts of a carbamyl chloride, IV, and amine, III, to an inert organic solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, xylene, or methylene chloride, in the presence of acid acceptor, such as triethylamine, pyridine, or sodium carbonate employing temperatures from 20°-130°. Soluble products can be isolated by filtering off precipitated salts and concentration of the filtrate. Insoluble products can be filtered off and washed free of salts with water.

The intermediate sulfonyl-N-alkyl carbamyl chlorides of Formula IV can be prepared by phosgenation of N-alkylsulfonamide salts. The sulfonamide salt is added to an excess of phosgene in an inert organic solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, toluene, or xylene, whereupon the carbamyl chloride can be isolated or reacted in situ with the amine, III, after removal of the excess phosgene.

The preparation of agriculturally suitable salts of the compounds of Formula I, as well as starting materials and intermediates for said compounds is disclosed in my application Ser. No. 824,805 filed Aug. 15, 1977 now U.S. Pat. No. 4,127,405 and Ser. No. 840,389 filed Oct. 6, 1977 now U.S. Pat. No. 4,169,719, the contents of which are incorporated by reference.

The compounds of this invention and their preparation are further illustrated by the following examples wherein temperatures are given in degrees centrigrade.

EXAMPLE 1 N-[N-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]-2-chlorobenzenesulfonamide.

To a dry, well-stirred mixture of 1.7 g of 2-methylamino-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine in 25 ml of acetonitrile, at ambient pressure and temperature, was added dropwise 2.2 g of 2-chlorobenzenesulfonyl isocyanate. The resulting mixture was stirred for 18 hours and the precipitated product removed by filtration to yield 2.5 g of white crystals melting at 52°-56°. The product was N-[N-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]-2-chlorobenzenesulfonamide.

EXAMPLE 2 N-[N-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]-2-nitrobenzenesulfonamide.

To a mixture of 1.7 g of 2-methylamino-4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine in 50 ml of acetonitrile was added 2.3 g of 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyl isocyanate with stirring. The resultant mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 72 hours and filtered to afford 1.2 g of a white crystalline solid melting at 184°-186°. The product was N-[N-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]-2-nitrobenzenesulfonamide which showed characteristic infrared absorption peaks at 1710 cm⁻¹, 1590 cm⁻¹, and 1550 cm⁻¹.

By using equivalent amounts of an appropriate 2-alkylamino-1,3,5-triazine and an appropriately substituted benzenesulfonyl isocyanate, the compounds of Formula I set forth in Table I can be prepared by the procedures of Examples 1 or 2.

EXAMPLE 3 N-[N-(4-methoxy-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]-2,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonamide.

To a stirred mixture of 0.8 g of 2-methylamino-4-methoxy-6-methylpyrimidine in 25 ml of acetonitrile containing a few crystals of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane was added dropwise 1.3 g of 2,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonyl isocyanate. The mixture was stirred for 16 hours and the resultant solid was filtered to afford 1.2 g of N-[N-(4-methoxy-6-methylpyrimidine-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]-2,5-dichlorobenzenesulfonamide melting at 182°-185°. Infrared absorption spectrum showed peaks at 1690 cm⁻¹, 1590 cm⁻¹, and 1550 cm⁻¹ which are typical for this type of compound.

EXAMPLE 4 N-[N-(4-methoxy-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]-2,6-dichlorobenzenesulfonamide.

To 0.8 g of 4-methoxy-6-methyl-2-methylaminopyrimidine in 25 ml of dry acetonitrile containing a few crystals of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane was added 1.3 g of 2,6-dichlorobenzenesulfonyl isocyanate. The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 hours and the resultant solution was evaporated leaving a white solid. Trituration with 1-chlorobutane followed by filtration afforded 0.5 g of N-[N-(4-methoxy-6-methylpyrimidine-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]-2,6-dichlorobenzenesulfonamide melting at 170°-171°. Infrared absorption peaks were observed at 1700 cm⁻¹, 1600 cm⁻¹, and 1570 cm⁻¹.

By using equivalent amounts of an appropriate 2-alkylaminopyrimidine and an appropriately substituted benzenesulfonyl isocyanate, the compounds of Formula I set forth in Table II can be prepared by the procedures of Examples 3 and 4.

EXAMPLE 6 N-[N-(4,6-Dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-aminocarbonyl]2,5-dimethoxy-N-methylbenzenesulfonamide

An equivalent amount of sodium hydride (50% mineral oil dispersion) is added to a solution of N-[(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)aminocarbonyl]2,5-dimethoxybenzenesulfonamide in dimethylformamide under a nitrogen atmosphere. After hydrogen evolution ceases, an equivalent amount of dimethyl sulfate is added. After stirring for 2-18 hours, the reaction mixture is poured into a large volume of water. The resulting precipitate is filtered to yield N-[N-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-aminocarbonyl]-2,5-dimethoxy-N-methylbenzenesulfonamide.

EXAMPLE 7 N-[N-(4-Methoxy-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]2,5-dichloro-N-methylbenzenesulfonamide

To 3.0 g of N-[(2,5-dichlorophenyl)sulfonyl]-N-methylcarbamyl chloride in 50 ml of tetrahydrofuran containing 1.0 g of triethylamine is added 1.5 g of 2-methylamino-4-methoxy-6-methylpyrimidine. After stirring at reflux for several hours, the precipitated salts are filtered off and the filtrate is concentrated to yield N-[N-(4-methoxy-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)-N-methylaminocarbonyl]2,5-dichloro-N-methylbenzenesulfonamide.

By using an appropriate N-(1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-N-aminocarbonylbenzenesulfonamide or N-pyrimidin-2-yl-N-aminocarbonylbenzenesulfonamide, the following compounds of Formula I as set forth in Table IV can be prepared by the procedure of Example 6. Alternatively, by using an appropriately substituted sulfonyl-N-alkylbenzene carbamyl chloride and an appropriate 2-aminopyrimidine or 2-amino-1,3,5-triazine, the same compounds of Formula I can be prepared by the procedure of Example 7.

Useful formulations of the compounds of Formula I can be prepared in conventional ways. They include dusts, granules, pellets, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates and the like. Many of these may be applied directly. Sprayable formulations can be extended in suitable media and used at spray volumes of form a few pints to several hundred gallons per acre. High strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation. The formulations, broadly, contain about 1% to 99% by weight of active ingredient(s) and at least one of (a) about 0.1% to 20% surfactant(s) and (b) about 1% to 99% solid or liquid diluent(s). More specifically, they will contain these ingredients in the following approximate proportions:

Lower or higher levels of active ingredient can, of course, by present depending on the intended use and the physical properties of the compound. Higher ratios of surfactant to active ingredient are sometimes desirable, and are achieved by incorporation into the formulation or by tank mixing.

Typical solid diluents are described in Watkins, et al, "Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers", 2nd. Ed., Dorland Books, Caldwell, N.J. The more absorptive diluents are preferred for wettable powders and the denser ones for dusts. Typical liquid diluents and solvents are described in Marsden, "Solvents Guide", 2nd. Ed., Interscience, New York, 1950. Solubility under 0.1% is preferred for suspension concentrates; solution concentrates are preferably stable against phase separation at 0° C. "McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual", MC Publishing Co., Ridgewood, N.J., as well as Sisely and Wood, "Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents", Chemical Publ. Co., Inc., New York, 1964, list surfactants and recommended uses. All formulations can contain minor amounts of additives to reduce foam, caking, corrosion, microbiological growth, etc. Preferably, ingredients should be approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for the use intended.

The methods of making such compositions are well known. Solutions are prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. Fine solid compositions are made by blending and, usually, grinding as in a hammer or fluid energy mill. Suspensions are prepared by wet milling (see, for example, Littler, U.S. Pat. No. 3,060,084). Granules and pellets may be made by spraying the active material upon preformed granular carriers or by agglomeration techniques. See J. E. Browning, "Agglomeration", Chemical Engineering, Dec. 4, 1967, pp. 147ff. and "Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook", 4th Ed., McGraw-Hill, N.Y. 1963, pp 8-59ff.

These may be used directly after drying, or the dried pellets may be crushed to pass a U.S.S. No. 20 sieve (0.84 mm openings). The granules held on a U.S.S. No. 40 sieve (0.42 mm openings) may be packaged for use and the fines recycled.

UTILITY

The compounds of Formula I are useful for the selective control of undesired vegetation in crops such as rice, wheat, and barley. These compounds are most effective when applied after emergence of weeds from the soil. However, they are also effective when applied preemergence. In addition, they can be used as directed treatments for the pre/post-emergence control of weeds in various crops. These compounds are also useful wherever general weed control is required, such as industrial sites, railroad and utility rights-of-way, along fences, building foundations, parking and storage lots, etc.

The precise amount of the compounds of Formula I to be used in any given situation will vary according to the particular end result desired, the use involved, the crop weed species, and soil involved, the formulation used, the mode of application, prevailing weather conditions, foliage density and the like factors. Since so many variables play a role, it is not possible to state a rate of application suitable for all situations. Broadly speaking, the compounds of the invention are used at levels of about 0.03 to about 15 kilograms, preferably about 0.12 to about 8, per hectare. The lower rates in this range will generally be selected on lighter soils, soils low in organic matter content, for selective weed control in crops, or in situations where maximum persistence is not necessary.

Although the compounds of the present invention provide excellent weed control when applied in the sole herbicide treatment, they may be advantageously applied in combination with other herbicides, including, but not restricted to, the following:

Methyl-2-//4-/2,4-dichlorophenoxy/phenoxy//-propanoate;

Carbamic acid diisopropylthiol-S-/2,3,3-trichloroalkyl/ester;

1,2-dimethyl-3,5-diphenyl-pyrazolium methyl-sulfate;

Ethyl-N-benzoyl-N-/3,4-dichlorophenyl-2-aminopropanoate;

Diisopropylthiolcarbamic acid, ester with 2,3-dichloroallyl alcohol;

4-Chloro-2-butynyl-m-chlorocarbanilate;

2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (and derivatives);

3-chloro-2-(4-chloro-2-fluorophenyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-indazole;

3-isopropyl-1(H)-benzo-2,1,3-thiadizin-4-one-2,2-dioxide;

S-(4-chlorobenzyl)-N,N-diethylthiolcarbamate;

2-chloro-2',6'-diethyl-N-butoxymethyl-acetanilide;

3',4'-dichloropropionanilide;

2,4,6-trichlorophenyl-4'-nitrophenyl ether;

5-tert-butyl-3-(2,4-dichloro-5-isopropoxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-one

The herbicidal activity of compounds of this invention was discovered in greenhouse tests, conducted as explained below.

TEST 1

Seeds of crabgrass (Digitaria spp.), barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), wild oats (Avena fatua), Cassia Tora, morningglory (Ipomoea spp.), cocklebur (Xanthium spp.), sorghum, corn, soybean, rice, wheat and nutsedge tubers were planted in a growth medium and treated preemergence with the chemicals dissolved in a non-phytotoxic solvent. At the same time, cotton having five leaves (including cotyledonary ones), bush beans with the third trifoliolate leaf expanding, crabgrass with two leaves, barnyardgrass with two leaves, wild oats with one leaf, cassia with three leaves (including cotyledonary ones), morningglory with four leaves (including the cotyledonary ones), cocklebur with four leaves (including the cotyledonary ones), sorghum with three leaves, corn with three leaves, soybean with two cotyledonary leaves, rice with two leaves, wheat with one leaf, and nutsedge with three-five leaves were sprayed. Treated plants and controls were maintained in a greenhouse for sixteen days, then all species were compared to controls and visually rated for response to treatment.

The ratings for compounds tested by this procedure are recorded in Table VII, and consists of a number and a letter. The number describes the extent of the response and ranges from zero to ten, with zero representing no response and ten representing 100% response. The letter describes the type of response, with "B" representing burn (acute response), "C" chlorosis-necrosis (chronic response), "E" emergence inhibited, "G" growth retarded, "H" formative effect (malformation or hormone type), "L" lodging, and "U" unusual pigmentation (other than dark green color). However, the combined rating "6Y" is an exception to the extent and type explanation given above, in that it simply represents abscised buds or flowers.
